Not everyone is a candidate to be a friend: 1. “Do not be envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them, for their minds devise violence and their lips talk of trouble” (Prov.24:1-2). 2. “A perverse man spreads strife, and a slanderer separates intimate friends” (Prov. 16:28). 3. “Leave the presence of a fool, or you will not discern words of knowledge” (Prov. 14:7). 4. “He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets; therefore, do not associate with a gossip” (Prov. 20:19). 5. “Do not associate with a man given to anger, or go with a hot-tempered man; lest you learn his ways, and find a snare for yourself” (Prov. 22:24-25). 6. “Do not be with heavy drinkers of wine or with gluttonous eaters of meat” (Prov. 23:20). 7. “Do not associate with those who are given to change, for their calamity will rise suddenly and who knows the ruin that comes from them” (Prov. 24:21-22).

INSTRUCTIONS

In a frying pan, add a small amount (about 2 Tbsp.) of white vinegar
to about 4 cups of granulated sugar. (This prevents sugar from
crystallizing.)  Add just enough water to dissolve the sugar.  Cook the
mixture over a medium to high flame (about 250 F) until it  turns into
a light caramel color.  Pour the mixture onto a silicone pad.  Add food
coloring to the mixture and allow it to cool slightly.  Next, while
wearing latex gloves, pull the mixture using your fist to  knead the
mixture as you pull and fold the mixture a few times until  it
resembles a small mound of folded taffy.  Place the mixture under an
infra-red light to keep it warm and  malleable.  Repeat the above
process two more times until you have three mounds of  different
colored taffy-like mixtures.  Next, place the three mounds side by side
and fold together so there  are three stripes.  Keep pulling and
folding the stripes side by side until there are  multiple color
stripes and the strip is pulled to a thinness that  resembles ribbon.
Next, using a heated spackling tool, (heated over a small blow  torch),
cut the strip into pieces about 6 inches long. (Note: be  careful not
to make the cuts over a Formica surface. Stainless steel,  marble or
wood work best).  Place the strips under an infra red lamp to make them
malleable.  Next, form into bow loops as desired. Form bow into place
by melting  ends of pieces with small blow torch. Attach ribbon pieces
to bow in  the same way.  To store sugar, place in plastic container
and store over calcium  chloride (rock salt).  Â© 1997 Jacques Torres
